British Birds Diary

The British Birds Diary contains 80 pages for you
to make your own audio record of your birding experiences.

Over time you can
build up your own personal Bird Diary. Each page has 6 recordable spots into
which you can save your recordings. The index has recordings of 270 species
sorted in scientific order as well as alphabetically. The bird recordings are
by Jean Roché and the very useful audio guide is by Geoff Sample. The diary is
made of high quality art paper for notes and sketches and fits easily into a
jacket pocket.

HOW TO RECORD ONTO YOUR DIARY

To make a recording in the diary, first choose where you are going to
save your recording. For example, you might want to record onto one of the
sound spots on page 16. Switch on your PEN and then hold down the 'M' button until the light turns red. You are now in record mode. Now hold down the Record Button (showing the small microphone) and then
touch the spot. When the light turns purpleyou can let go of the record button and make your
recording.To finish press the record
button again to stop recording. To listen to your recording just touch the spot
you recorded onto with the Pen. (This is with the Pen still in the red record
mode). You can also make notes and sketches next to that sound spot as a way of
building up your own library of observations and sounds.

This is a fantastic way of monitoring the changes either in your local area or when on holiday. It's also a great help when wanting to identify birds. Record the bird, make a note of what it looked like, and then when you are at home you can look it up.
